Default Re: The best data storage system that never took off.

When I was an young engineer at southern rentals our head office in Hove had a new computer system installed. The new IBM had 4 or 5 Winchester stacked disc units for data storage. each of These disc stacks were about 14 - 15 inches in diameter and about 10 disc high. This was about 1973/4. The computer system took up 3 rooms.
